Traveler reviews
Nazanin R
★★★★★5 months agoA very interesting museum to learn about the role of women in Vietnam’s history and culture. The exhibitions include traditional clothing, historical photos, and many personal stories of women during different periods. The museum is well organized and informative. It’s worth visiting if you want to understand more about Vietnamese history and the important role of women.
Nguyễn Trần Phương Hoàng
★★★★★5 months agoThe museum is not very large and has two floors. The first floor displays áo dài and traditional costumes of women from different ethnic groups in Southern Vietnam. The second floor focuses on the history of the resistance wars against the French and Americans, as well as the remarkable contributions of women. Highly recommended!
